Customer Review: Fast satellite aquisition
I like this unit. For the Navman N40i, this is a good unit it adquires a gps signal within seconds from a cold start, it grabs a satellite faster than my Mio 520 or my Garmin 350, or Navigon, and quickly in a heavily treed areas. I can not believe how quick it adquires for a older unit. The maps are old and so for there are no up dates yet. Once I got use to the menus I found them to be the better of other units. I like how when you find a POI it gives you the option to save, go or view. And recent or favorites when you select one you got full information about the POI (total mailing address with phone No# and longitude and latitude, but you can not search longitude and latitude. And option to save go or view for recent.
Pros -You can pan in 3D or 2D, you can not with a lot of other units (Garmin Navigon), and from 3D to 2D it keeps you in the same direction you are going. If you drive through a tunnel while navigating and lose the signal it goes to the turn directions list. I find it to have one of the easiest and well thought menus. I like the exterior buttons (parking and gas). NavPix is a good feature that works very well, and it works in the holder and can be used in case of a car accident and marks exact location. Can be set to shut off in specified time when not in motion and it will turn on when car is started. Well constructed. Has a remote control that I purchased $32.00 and worth the buy. I paid $155.00 for the N40i total. Screen works well in full sun because it is set back. Tells you what side of the road POI is on. In and out of holder easily.
Good amount of POIs. POI with city search one of the best to me. I did need to read the owners manual. Good battery life.
Cons -Slow rerouting, speaker could be louder. Needs newer maps. Should tell you to turn sooner at times not all times.
I do recommend but because of the cons I give 3 ½ stars.
